Iconic Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has bagged the fifth ESPNcricinfo best batting performance award in Tests beating the likes of his compatriot Rahul Dravid and Australian skipper Michael Clarke. Tendulkar, whose 146 in Cape Town last year came in testing conditions and in the face of some sublime swing bowling by Dale Steyn, became the No. 1 choice of seven jurors out of the 11 who had him in their top three. It was Tendulkar's second ESPNcricinfo Award. He had won the best ODI batting performance award in 2009 for his 175 against Australia in Hyderabad.
